بِسۡمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحۡمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ

1. 78:1

   عَمَّ يَتَسَآءَلُونَ ١

   About what are they asking one another?

2. 78:2

   عَنِ ٱلنَّبَإِ ٱلۡعَظِيمِ ٢

   About the great news -

3. 78:3

   ٱلَّذِي هُمۡ فِيهِ مُخۡتَلِفُونَ ٣

   That over which they are in disagreement.

4. 78:4

   كـَلَّا سَيَعۡلَمُونَ ٤

   No! They are going to know.

5. 78:5

   ثُمَّ كـَلَّا سَيَعۡلَمُونَ ٥

   Then, no! They are going to know.

6. 78:6

   أَلَمۡ نَجۡعَلِ ٱلۡأَرۡضَ مِهَٰدٗا ٦

   Have We not made the earth a resting place?

7. 78:7

   وَٱلۡجِبَالَ أَوۡتَادٗا ٧

   And the mountains as stakes?

8. 78:8

   وَخَلَقۡنَٰكُمۡ أَزۡوَٰجٗا ٨

   And We created you in pairs.

9. 78:9

   وَجَعَلۡنَا نَوۡمَكُمۡ سُبَاتٗا ٩

   And made your sleep [a means for] rest

10. 78:10

    وَجَعَلۡنَا ٱلَّيۡلَ لِبَاسٗا ١٠

    And made the night as clothing.

11. 78:11

    وَجَعَلۡنَا ٱلنَّهَارَ مَعَاشٗا ١١

    And made the day for livelihood.

12. 78:12

    وَبَنَيۡنَا فَوۡقَكُمۡ سَبۡعٗا شِدَادٗا ١٢

    And constructed above you seven strong [heavens].

13. 78:13

    وَجَعَلۡنَا سِرَاجٗا وَهَّاجٗا ١٣

    And made [therein] a burning lamp

14. 78:14

    وَأَنزَلۡنَا مِنَ ٱلۡمُعۡصِرَٰتِ مَآءٗ ثَجَّاجٗا ١٤

    And sent down, from the rain clouds, pouring water.

15. 78:15

    لِّنُخۡرِجَ بِهِۦ حَبّٗا وَنَبَاتٗا ١٥

    That We may bring forth thereby grain and vegetation.

16. 78:16

    وَجَنَّٰتٍ أَلۡفَافًا ١٦

    And gardens of entwined growth.

17. 78:17

    إِنَّ يَوۡمَ ٱلۡفَصۡلِ كَانَ مِيقَٰتٗا ١٧

    Indeed, the Day of Judgement is an appointed time -

18. 78:18

    يَوۡمَ يُنفَخُ فِي ٱلصُّورِ فَتَأۡتُونَ أَفۡوَاجٗا ١٨

    The Day the Horn is blown and you will come forth in multitudes

19. 78:19

    وَفُتِحَتِ ٱلسَّمَآءُ فَكَانَتۡ أَبۡوَٰبٗا ١٩

    And the heaven is opened and will become gateways.

20. 78:20

    وَسُيِّرَتِ ٱلۡجِبَالُ فَكَانَتۡ سَرَابًا ٢٠

    And the mountains are removed and will be [but] a mirage.

21. 78:21

    إِنَّ جَهَنَّمَ كَانَتۡ مِرۡصَادٗا ٢١

    Indeed, Hell has been lying in wait

22. 78:22

    لِّلطَّٰغِينَ مَـَٔابٗا ٢٢

    For the transgressors, a place of return,

23. 78:23

    لَّٰبِثِينَ فِيهَآ أَحۡقَابٗا ٢٣

    In which they will remain for ages [unending].

24. 78:24

    لَّا يَذُوقُونَ فِيهَا بَرۡدٗا وَلَا شَرَابًا ٢٤

    They will not taste therein [any] coolness or drink.

25. 78:25

    إِلَّا حَمِيمٗا وَغَسَّاقٗا ٢٥

    Except scalding water and [foul] purulence -

26. 78:26

    جَزَآءٗ وِفَاقًا ٢٦

    An appropriate recompense.

27. 78:27

    إِنَّهُمۡ كَانُواْ لَا يَرۡجُونَ حِسَابٗا ٢٧

    Indeed, they were not expecting an account

28. 78:28

    وَكَذَّبُواْ بِـَٔايَٰتِنَا كِذَّابٗا ٢٨

    And denied Our verses with [emphatic] denial.

29. 78:29

    وَكُلَّ شَيۡءٍ أَحۡصَيۡنَٰهُ كِتَٰبٗا ٢٩

    But all things We have enumerated in writing.

30. 78:30

    فَذُوقُواْ فَلَن نَّزِيدَكُمۡ إِلَّا عَذَابًا ٣٠

    "So taste [the penalty], and never will We increase you except in torment."

31. 78:31

    إِنَّ لِلۡمُتَّقِينَ مَفَازًا ٣١

    Indeed, for the righteous is attainment -

32. 78:32

    حَدَآئِقَ وَأَعۡنَٰبٗا ٣٢

    Gardens and grapevines.

33. 78:33

    وَكَوَاعِبَ أَتۡرَابٗا ٣٣

    And full-breasted [companions] of equal age.

34. 78:34

    وَكَأۡسٗا دِهَاقٗا ٣٤

    And a full cup.

35. 78:35

    لَّا يَسۡمَعُونَ فِيهَا لَغۡوٗا وَلَا كِذَّٰبٗا ٣٥

    No ill speech will they hear therein or any falsehood -

36. 78:36

    جَزَآءٗ مِّن رَّبِّكَ عَطَآءً حِسَابٗا ٣٦

    [As] reward from your Lord, [a generous] gift [made due by] account,

37. 78:37

    رَّبِّ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلۡأَرۡضِ وَمَا بَيۡنَهُمَا ٱلرَّحۡمَٰنِۖ لَا يَمۡلِكُونَ مِنۡهُ خِطَابٗا ٣٧

    [From] the Lord of the heavens and the earth and whatever is between them, the Most Merciful. They possess not from Him [authority for] speech.

38. 78:38

    يَوۡمَ يَقُومُ ٱلرُّوحُ وَٱلۡمَلَٰٓئِكَةُ صَفّٗاۖ لَّا يَتَكَلَّمُونَ إِلَّا مَنۡ أَذِنَ لَهُ ٱلرَّحۡمَٰنُ وَقَالَ صَوَابٗا ٣٨

    The Day that the Spirit [i.e., Gabriel] and the angels will stand in rows, they will not speak except for one whom the Most Merciful permits, and he will say what is correct.

39. 78:39

    ذَٰلِكَ ٱلۡيَوۡمُ ٱلۡحَقُّۖ فَمَن شَآءَ ٱتَّخَذَ إِلَىٰ رَبِّهِۦ مَـَٔابًا ٣٩

    That is the True [i.e., certain] Day; so he who wills may take to his Lord a [way of] return.

40. 78:40

    إِنَّآ أَنذَرۡنَٰكُمۡ عَذَابٗا قَرِيبٗا يَوۡمَ يَنظُرُ ٱلۡمَرۡءُ مَا قَدَّمَتۡ يَدَاهُ وَيَقُولُ ٱلۡكَافِرُ يَٰلَيۡتَنِي كُنتُ تُرَٰبَۢا ٤٠

    Indeed, We have warned you of an impending punishment on the Day when a man will observe what his hands have put forth and the disbeliever will say, "Oh, I wish that I were dust!"
